Nicolas,
(this one goes in english - sorry)

I think there is still a big focus on a narrow effect (DoS against a 
legitimate owner) of all the possible impacts of an hijack.

Resource Hijacking is commonly observed to have several objectives 
(either separately or grouped):
+ Diverting law enforcement from the real origin of packets tied 
with illegal activities;
+ Temporarily make use of address space without any maintenance cost 
associated (i.e. RIR membership);
+ Impersonating third party networks and services;
+ Eavesdropping on third party networks' traffic (i.e. man-in-the-middle 
attacks);
+ Disrupt IP communications between two or more third party networks.

Please feel free to use the above text to start a BCOP. I'm available to 
work on that too.

Best Regards,
Carlos
